21. practical – more practical – most practical

22.  lazy – lazier – laziest

23. empty – emptier – emptiest

24. fat – fatter - fattest

Explanation:

We use comparative to compare similarities or differences between people and things.

We make comparative adjectives when we add the termination <em>-er</em> to the end of the word (for one-syllable words), or we use the form <em>more + adjective</em> (for two, three, or more syllable adjectives).

We use superlative to describe the extreme quality of things or persons.

We form the superlative when we add the termination <em>-est</em> at the end of an adjective or by using the construction <em>most + adjective</em>.

An absolute adjective represents a non-gradable adjective that does not have comparative or superlative, so it cannot be graded.

For example: dead, unique, ideal, eternal, sufficient, whole, etc.
